Nebius delivers Europe’s first live NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 deployment

In November, we announced the arrival of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra AI infrastructure to the UK. Building on that announcement, Nebius’ expanded Finland data center now hosts Europe’s first operational production deployment of the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 platform, expanding the capabilities of Nebius AI Cloud.

Powered by NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs and NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking, the system brings unprecedented performance and system-level efficiency for generative AI, large-scale model training, and advanced inference workloads — and represents Europe’s first GB300 NVL72 system running on NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand.

With 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs operating as a single, tightly integrated supercomputer node, NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 integrates high-bandwidth, low-latency NVIDIA NVLink 5 interconnects to enable unified GPU memory access and deliver rack-scale performance that behaves like a single, giant GPU for large-scale AI and HPC workloads. Compared to previous NVIDIA systems, GB300 NVL72 delivers an impressive 1,000 tokens per second, 50x boost in AI Factory output performance and provides a 30x performance improvement for real-time video generation.

By pairing the supercomputer-class architecture of NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 with the scalability, elasticity, and the native and ecosystem AI/ML tooling that Nebius AI Cloud offers, customers can train, fine-tune and serve even the most demanding AI models without bottlenecks.

The new racks, featured below, were showcased during a recent tour of the data center led by CEO Arkady Volozh, where guests got a sneak preview of the now-operational NVIDIA GB300 systems.
